From Outflow to Taking Over: The Shift of South Korean Enterprises Behind 160 Trillion Won

South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) has ended a long-standing ban on institutional cryptocurrency investment, permitting listed companies and professional investors to allocate up to 5% of their equity into top-20 cryptocurrencies by market cap. This marks a significant shift from the country’s previous stance, which restricted institutional participation since 2017 despite a highly active retail crypto market. The policy change is seen as a pragmatic response to substantial capital outflows, with over ₩160 trillion (approx. $1100 billion) moved to overseas crypto exchanges by Korean investors. By creating a regulated pathway for domestic institutional involvement, authorities aim to reduce off-shore risks and encourage the return of capital to local platforms. This move is part of a broader regulatory trend, including plans to introduce spot crypto ETFs, signaling a transition from restrictive measures toward a structured, supervised framework for digital assets. The adjustment reflects Korea’s acknowledgment of crypto as a legitimate, manageable asset class within its financial system.

South Korea’s crypto market is changing, but here’s why not everyone is happy!

South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) is set to lift a 2017 ban that prevented companies and institutional investors from trading cryptocurrencies. New guidelines, expected by February, will allow around 3,500 entities to invest in crypto for financial purposes. Corporations will be limited to investing up to 5% of their equity annually, restricted to the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap. While this aims to boost liquidity and stability, critics argue the strict cap may disadvantage Korean firms compared to more flexible markets like the U.S. and Japan. The status of dollar-pegged stablecoins remains under discussion.

Bitcoin Demand Remains Weak: Setting The Stage For Long-Term Accumulation

Bitcoin is attempting to stabilize above $90,000 amid renewed macro uncertainty following comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. On-chain data indicates weak underlying demand, with the "apparent demand" metric remaining negative at approximately -106,000 BTC. This suggests more dormant supply is entering the market than new demand is absorbing, signaling net selling pressure. However, the weakness reflects cautious and defensive behavior rather than panic or capitulation. Historically, such periods of low demand can create long-term accumulation opportunities, though current conditions favor disciplined, patient strategies over short-term speculation. The market awaits clearer signals from macro conditions or on-chain metrics before committing fresh capital.

Bitcoin slips below miner costs: Will Trump’s 10% credit cap boost demand?

Bitcoin is currently trading below its estimated mining cost of around $101,600, a level that historically acts as a support floor as miners reduce selling pressure. This coincides with a potential market rebound, as outflows likely bottomed in late December. Meanwhile, former President Trump's proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10% may restrict credit access for some borrowers, potentially driving new demand toward Bitcoin and DeFi as alternative financial systems. While these factors support a short-term price recovery, analysts caution that weak long-term liquidity could challenge any sustained rally.

Monero, Zcash, and Canton Network: Who is the True King of Privacy?

Blockchain transparency poses risks for institutions by exposing sensitive corporate and financial data. While Monero offers complete anonymity by hiding all transaction details, it lacks KYC/AML compliance, making it unsuitable for regulated entities. Zcash provides selective privacy through shielded addresses, allowing users to encrypt transactions but only in an all-or-nothing manner. In contrast, Canton Network enables granular, selective disclosure—allowing institutions to share only specific transaction components with authorized parties (e.g., regulators) while keeping other details private. This aligns with institutional needs for both privacy and compliance. Canton’s adoption by DTCC and over 400 institutions highlights its practical design for real-world financial workflows, positioning it as a leading privacy solution for the institutional era.
